Leeward Islands
Anguila through Dominica

Anguilla, St. Martin, St. Barts, Saba, Statia, St. Kitts, Nevis, Redonda, Monserrat, Antigua, Barbuda, Guadeloupe, Marie Galante, The Saintes, Dominica -- 200 miles of great variety. You’ll hear English, Dutch,  French, and Creole, and  you can spend the Yankee dollar, the EC (Eastern Caribbean) dollar, the Euro, or the guilder.  The two things all these island have in common are the Trade Winds, and lots and lots of sun.
